Today I am grateful for:

Longer days. As cold as it was today, it was nice to have light longer.

I decided not to go anywhere today. Usually I would go see River, but it is pretty cold to work with him. The arena is not heated.

I did my normal chores, and set myself up a little bit to make evening chores a bit better by taking the hay needed for the ponies over, to save myself one trip.

I spent about 45 minutes in the garage, allowing the goats to wander around inside the garage. They come in when it is this cold, but their pens are quite small so I try to give them time to stretch.

I put them back in their pens, and cleaned the garage up a bit. There was hay and goat pebbles all over the place.

Then I came inside and warmed up with a bath.

Then I just relaxed and read/napped for a while.

Over all a very quiet day, but those are okay too.

I learned: "Still in limited release in 2023, some 47 years after its premiere, it is the longest-running theatrical release in film history. In many cities, live amateur shadow-casts act out the film as it is being shown and heavily draw upon a tradition of audience participation.[7] The film is most often shown close to Halloween. Today, the film has a large international cult following and has been considered by many as one of the greatest musical films of all time. In 2005, it was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." ".

It seems The Rocky Horror (Picture) show has been around for ever. We saw the Rocky Horror Show on stage a few years ago, and it was fun, especially with the crowd knowing all the words.

It's funny to think that it could be our era's Shakespeare. Hundreds of years from now, that show will still be being performed somewhere, and it might be the only link to our culture left.

I'm okay with that being our legacy.

Beileve it or not, I've never seen The Rocky Horror Picture Show. If I visit my cousin in Scotland, I'll have someone to go with, unless I can bribe the sous chef. Then there's the denizen who said No, no, no.

You've never seen it, but I bet you more or less know the entire plot.

I must have seen that peculiar little dance a million times, too.
